Video: Lamborghini can measure your health and track performance all at once

Lamborghini has announced its new Telemetry X system at this week's Consumer Electronics Show (CES), debuting as a Strava-like performance and health tracker for the track.

Effectively a real-time telemetry system that adds driver biometrics into the mix, Telemetry X gives Lambo drivers the benefit of a 'Digital Co-Pilot' and a remote coaching feature ('Remote Garage') through a 5G mobile connection.

Using a wearable device, Telemetry X's biometrics tracking includes the ability to monitor your own health behind the wheel, "“including heart rate and stress level, to allow more in-depth performance monitoring and provide useful references on how they can refine their training".

All of those things can be achieved with any number of today's fitness bands and monitoring devices, of course, but Telemetry X is intended to be tied more closely with the Lamborghini model and track of choice.

The Digital Co-Pilot is effectively a voice assistant that focuses on your track work, which "analyses lap times and provides useful pointers for improving racing lines and braking points, as well as information on the performance of the car on the track".

“Telemetry X is a clear demonstration of how experience gained in motorsport can find applications for road-going super sports cars, with the aim of maximizing our customers’ experience on the track as well,” says Rouven Mohr, Lamborghini Chief Technical Officer.

"It’s no coincidence that we chose the Revuelto as the testbed for this technological demonstrator, a car that is totally unique precisely because of the introduction of breakthrough technologies.”
